A new out of town client sent us his baby for the DRAGint IS300 swap special! All the way from Washington, we are going to upgrade this with Twin Turbo 2JZGTE VVTI Power along with a brand new R154 Transmission conversion for reliable power! Check back as we document this quick build set to be completed within 5-7 business days. #DRAGint!!!!

We have available for sale a very clean 2001 Lexus IS300 with a 1JZGTE Single Turbo Swap. We purchased this hard to find Green with Beige Leather IS300 with a Clean Title all stock and then upgraded it with a JZ Turbo Engine and matching 4 speed Turbo trans. We specialize in 1/2JZGTE swaps with OEM reliability and functionality. A low mileage Crown JZS171 Motor was installed with a custom Front Mount Intercooler Kit and Full Exhaust system. We took care of the wiring and electrical system, the fuel system as well as the cooling system so that the car runs and drives like factory. The motor pulls agressively, it is very fast! The IS300 is known for being compact, luxurious and very sporty. With the DRAGint.com touch, it is a serious performer that will blow the doors off of most other sedans! This car starts up and idles perfectly with ice cold ac, rides smooth and tracks straight. It is a great starting platform for the Toyota JZ turbo motor enthursiast.

We start on another swap project using the venerable 1JZGTE Twin Turbo motor. This time its a Stanced 240SX S14 Kouki version that is going to get some power – no more driving slow! The engine is already in place using Extreme Motorsports Mounts. Now we move on to Fuel / Cooling / Drive Shaft and the rest of the critical supporting mods. More progress photos and info to come!
